Research And Implementation Of The Simulation Platform Aimed At Adaptive Optics

Computer simulation technology is an integrated technology which is involved in multiple disciplines. It verifies the actual or assumed systems dynamically by using system models, which is based on cybernetics, system theory, similarity principle and information technology, and is using computers and special devices as tools. Computer simulation technology is widely used in the field of industry and scientific research.The system SciSimu is an universal platform of simulation and modeling, which is developed by ourselves. SciSimu is built on the principle of computer simulation. It can construct system through visualization, and then run the simulation. SciSimu uses the general scheduling tactic, transforms the first components' sequence into producer-consumer components' sequence, and invokes each component one by one. Components of SciSimu declare external interface according to the criterion. SciSimu can invoke a certain interface in a certain occasion to finish the running of simulation. The results of the simulation can be showed in the graphics model.We can add ability of simulation aiming at a certain field to SciSimu. Here we add the ability of simulation aiming at adaptive optics to SciSimu. Because the CAOS optics component library which is written in IDL language is used, an interface layer between SciSimu and CAOS has to be designed, in order to fulfill the communication between SciSimu and CAOS. The interface layer can change itself if the CAOS component library changes. The CAOS component library can be seamlessly loaded by SciSimu.
